For those USA members wanting the video: "Escher, Seurat, Van
Gosh: Art at Play"
From my original request to the National Film Board, I was told that
they do not sell the video to institutions...But I was
persistent...Below is the answer I received. The total cost it too
high for me to even consider--but some of you might be able to
swing it.
"Thanks for your message about the ListServe. I just double-
checked with our U.S. Sales Manager, and the only explanation we
can find for how ART AT PLAY came to be recommended on the
Art ListServe you refer to is that it was recommended by Canadian
educators.
The National Film Board of Canada can't sell ART AT PLAY to
institutions because one of the animated shorts featured on the
video, "Seurat: The Realm of Light," is sold in the U.S. by
AGC/United Learning. To order this particular title, you can call
AGC/United at: 800-323-9084.
The other two shorts featured in ART AT PLAY can be purchased
individually for $50.00 each: "M.C. Escher: Sky and Water" (title
code: 113C0098032); and"The Irises" (title code: 113C0391039).
To order, please call our toll-free number: 800-542-2164.
If you could post this information on the ListServe, it would be
much appreciated!"
